ASUS N13 USB Wireless device stopped woring on update to 2.6.32.27
I configured my ASUS N13 USB 300N wireless card to work with Ubuntu 10.04 using the RT_3070 STA v2.3.0.2 driver using the Makes and Make install routine about 6 months ago. It worked very stabily until I did a update via update manager some 3 months ago which stopped it working. I reinstalled the driver using the procedure recommended which restored full functionality.
Recently I did another upgrade to resolve an existing provlem however this time I cannot get my wireless working again even though I have re run the installation procedure as before.
I am surprised that this card is not supported by default and do not know why the reinstallation of the driver has not worked.
Here is some information that might help your reviewers understand what is happening.

[ 10.539290] usbcore: registered new interface driver rt2870
I have the following files in place:
network_
install rt3070sta /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install rt3070sta $CMDLINE_OPTS; /bin/echo "0b05 1784" > /sys/bus/
And network_
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}
There is no sign of life from the device when it is inserted into the USB port with no indicator light flashing.
What has caused this to fail so completely and does anyone know why this device is not supported natively by the Ubuntu kernal?
Many Thanks
Anthony
